If you thought NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts couldn’t get any better, think again. Ramy Youssef took to the Saturday Night Live stage to hilariously parody the beloved music series. In a skit that had the audience in stitches, Youssef, alongside Chloe Troast and James Austin Johnson, formed the Jonah Hughes Band for a unique performance.
After introducing themselves and mentioning the usual synth-heavy sound of their music, the band dives into a song titled ‘Crazy Girl, Amanda.’ But their performance is quickly interrupted by Bowen Yang, playing an NPR staffer who demands silence for the office workers nearby.
The comedic interaction between Youssef and the NPR staffer adds a new level of humor to the sketch. With quirky dialogue and unexpected twists, the Tiny Desk Concert parody becomes a must-watch moment from this week’s Saturday Night Live episode.
Youssef’s clever humor and comedic timing shine through in this performance, solidifying his status as a versatile and talented entertainer. SNL fans were treated to a fresh take on the iconic Tiny Desk Concerts, showcasing Youssef’s ability to bring laughter and entertainment to the stage.
